Glitter EVERYWHERE!!

I now truly believe that I am TOTALLY glitter challenged!!!

Tomorrow (Sat, 10/11) I have a meeting with my fellow demonstrators and the swap for tomorrow is "Bling".....now I am NOT very "Blingy". Well, I talked with my upline and friend, Karen, and she told me that anything with Dazzling Diamonds glitter would qualify as "Bling". So, I took the reindeer card that I posted a couple of days ago and decided to just use that and put Dazzling Diamonds on the snowflakes that I stamped on the white liner. Now for the swap I need to make 15 of the same card, which I did, but WHAT A MESS!!!! I not only have glitter on the snowflakes but all over me, my stamping desk, the chair, the floor, my ink pad bin, and I can only guess where else!

They are now all done and I am recovering from the trauma of it all.....here is the finished product.

Tomorrow I will post some of the swaps that I receive. The other demonstrators in my group are fabulous!! I always look forward to seeing what they come up with. I usually come away from this meeting feeling challenged to improve. I'm terrible at getting into a rut and making basically the same type of card....so I'm working on that.

Stamps: Winter Frost
Paper: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Basic Black
Ink: Black, VersaMark
Accessories:
1-3/4" circle punch, scallop edge punch, designed label punch, Riding Hood Red 5/8" striped grosgrain ribbon, Heat and Stick powder, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Stampin' dimensionals

This card is beautiful. I love the details and yet it is not overpowering. The glitter is a definte Bling!! Thank you for posting.
